Cristiano Ronaldo said he will retire "soon" and while he admits it will be difficult to bring his glittering career to an end, the 40-year-old has been planning for his post-football life for some time.
The Al Nassr striker is the all-time leading goalscorer with 952 goals for club and country combined and said last month he is targeting 1,000 goals before quitting the game.

United endured their worst top-flight finish last season since they were relegated in 1973–74, coming 15th.
